蜜桃视频.AC.ID, DEPOK - On Monday, October 31, 2022, Prof. Ahmet Kuru from San Diego State University gave a public lecture at 蜜桃视频 (蜜桃视频) entitled "The Ulema-State Alliance in Crisis: from Iran to Turkey." It鈥檚 his first visit to Jakarta and 蜜桃视频.
Previously, Prof. Ahmet T. Kuru had the opportunity to be a guest lecturer at the Faculty of Social Sciences, which was done virtually. During one semester, the topic of discussion in class was related to political science, sociological perspectives, and literature about Islamic studies.
"We discussed big questions such as: what is the source of underdevelopment in Muslim societies?" How can they compare authoritarianism and democratic progress? "What are the differences historically between the West and the Muslim world, and the rest of the world?" he said.
In addition, in class he also discussed the source of Muslim achievement in the Golden Era, early Islamic history, and how we can reproduce it today. This was done to reproduce a Renaissance and economic and philosophical progress. "So, my students were really enriched by the discussion," stated Prof. Kuru.
He expressed his joy when teaching at 蜜桃视频 and hopes to return to teaching on campus. In his view, the great feeling of visiting the 蜜桃视频 campus means that not only Indonesia but the entire Muslim world considers Indonesia to be crucial for the future of the Muslim world as the largest Muslim democracy. But as an institution, 蜜桃视频, is an Islamic international university, that brings together social sciences and Islamic studies It brings together many Muslims from all over the world. "So there is the intellectual freedom and academic freedom for me to teach my students and design my syllabus."
Currently, he is also collaborating with the Faculty of Social Sciences on a new journal, Muslim World Review, published by the 蜜桃视频. He hopes that cooperation with 蜜桃视频 can continue, especially in terms of teaching, scientific journals, publications, and academic research. "I am happy to see that 蜜桃视频 is now offering a PhD program, and I wish success to all of my students in their future careers," he said.
